I am finding it
Terribly overrated 
To be an adult
A responsible adult, that is
Because all we do is
Get a job
(Smile)
Keep the job
(Still smiling)
Drive back and forth to the job
(Don’t kill anybody)
Go grocery shopping 
To buy food
That has to be cooked
With other food
To be consumed
Shave your legs
Floss your teeth
(So you can smile)
Vacuum sweep mop
Dust dust dust
Mow the yard so the neighbors won’t talk
And you won’t have snakes
Paint patch plunge
Pay bills on time
Every time
Pick out insurance 
(Which isn’t nearly as fun as picking out pocketbooks)
Separate laundry
Fold laundry
Match socks
Dry cleaners
Put away laundry
Weigh yourself 
Critique yourself 
Compare yourself
(Smile)
Don’t miss appointments 
Schedule more appointments 
Buy gifts
Attend events
(All the smiling)
Understand politics
Pick a side
Pick a candidate 
Pick a team
Follow sports
Find a soul mate
(So much smiling)
Know how to sew
How to walk in heels
How to tame your hair
How to change a tire
How to say thank you
And I’m sorry 
Grieve with grace
And dignity
And never lose your cool
Because you may never come back 
To all this madness
If you go crazy
